Good morning! Ready to see you Vinny!

Maybe he lets his 1911s do the talking?

A Baer and a CZ. Wow.

I'm usually lurking because I'm on only a few minutes a day, so I keep up with the daily news (on here). But since this is the Czickness forum, you could say I have it...

Afternoon all
As the proud new owner of a 4.25" SA Prodigy I think I may have to go to the range.

First time I've had to go into an office for quite some time. Get on I70 to head to customer location and smack, rock to the windshield. Got an appointment on Friday for replacement.

Hopefully the shop can do this properly as they discussed with me on the phone. Lots of shops can't figure out how to properly replace an FJ windshield along with the necessary clips, and molding piece removal.

Looks like it was fairly quiet in here today.

And of course, I get to the Southside today for my appt, after having called yesterday to confirm they have all the parts and clips, etc that one needs to replace a windshield for an FJ, and about 25 minutes after getting there am informed they don't have everything they need, and they will order the additional parts. Should be in on Monday...

Told them I would call before I head down on Monday to confirm.

Ugh, nothing like questioning multiple times because FJs are different for windshields and being reassured they had everything, and then having them still not have all the parts.

I am glad that the installer recognized it and didn't just try to make up the difference with silicone.

My oldest is ferrying an airplane down to Puerto Rico today and tomorrow. Raleigh, NC is half way through today's leg, so he's flying into the county airport south of Raleigh for fuel and lunch. My sister and mother are meeting him for lunch when he stops briefly. Then, on to FL today. Tomorrow , he makes the long over water part of the trip.

My newest CZ that’s not a CZ lol…

If you had a jeep, you’d be home with a new windshield right now

One of my favorite 1911s. I very stupidly sold its little brother.

But unfortunately I'd also have a jeep.

That said, I hear barbie had one and she said it was nice.

Another 1911 that would tempt me.

Honestly, I shot it better than anything else. I sold it to help finance my first Baer, which I didn't need.

And it would be bug splattered with heavy amounts of bug juice…..Jeeps don’t slice the wind….they hammer thru. I always hate driving when the bugs come out after winter…. There are times when a scraper works better than a squeegee….BUT driving a 1974 deuce an a half down to hurricane Katrina….we encountered “love bugs”. Our convoy actually had to pull over and scrap windshields because those pneumatic WW2 wipers weren’t cutting it.

Grew up in FL. Love bugs are a plague.

I learned to dislike them on a motorcycle !

Hurricane Katrina blew them up to northern Mississippi when we were driving down. Locals told us “they were a coastal thing”. Of course, deuces are the farthest thing from a real driving performance machine….lol. Every time we stopped for diesel, they were getting a half a gallon of oil and topping off the radiator along with the love bug scrape. At least when you sleep next to a deuce, the mosquitoes stay away…..something about diesel and burning oil….keeps the blood suckers away!

If it's the Baer monolith upthread, you don't need it. You should sell it to me.
